June 25, 1930 issue

add to cart   close window

The events at Peshawar on April 23 have never been fully reported. There are very strong indications that they were not creditable to the government. A rigid censorship was immediately imposed; a government communiqué was issued placing all blame on the Nationalists; V.I. Patel, Nationalist leader, and Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, prominent Indian liberal, were denied permission to go to Peshawar and make an investigation.
